Hmmm power to China’s communist party. Looks like they have all the fun

Why Come to China?

Posted by w_thames_the_d on April 19, 2012


The reason that many come to China is obvious, its a panacea of filth, sloth, perversion, ecological disaster and greed.
Allow me to explain. Please take my hand as I lead you on the path of understanding.
Companies like china for they can purchase the soul of a local for 100 bucks a month. With that cash they are not only entitled to 12 hour days 28 days a month, but can also lord over the workers like one of the local reds.In addition they can pollute as they wish, after all, it’s only locals that they harm.

Businessmen like to come here for they can expense a rub and tug, or a shot of ass, after all, most of the bean counters back home have no idea what business travel to china includes.

Guys like china for we understand math. There are only 69,000 Americans here. Assume half to be men, that’s 34,500 dudes. China has 650,000,000 women. Of course these must be shared amongst the other 300,000 foreign guys, but you do the math. After all, what Chinese chick is not willing to drop the linen, for a shot at a green card from abc, anywhere but hell aka e big stinky.

the best counter argument to this point, is that china has 650,000,000 women, but they are made in china, thus most are not worth a damn. They are slothful ,ignorant, stink like garlic and uglier than a baboons ass.

Conservitely speaking, that still leaves a couple million and change who are not appalling.

Students like china for Chinese schools suck, cheating is encouraged, and see the last point, lots of coozle.

Politicians love china for here, you know exactly whom to bribe. For a ten spot you can buy a son to daughter of most anyone here, just ask an official for help.

Yeah, China is rising and the world is falling. I miss Mao, he kept them in line.

Lottery Winners, China’s Death Train and the King of Brews

Posted by w_thames_the_d on April 19, 2012


Big Brewskie is a resident expert on the land of inhuman air and at times people. The Banging Brew Man is a China watcher from way back and called some of what is happening here today. Below I will paste an entertaining as well as informative comment from him. But first Brew, whats your prediction, how long will this place last as is…a year ago my prediction was three to four, whats yours? King, I’d like to hear what u have to say as well.

From the King of Beers

Tsk tsk. What’s a more fruitless expenditure of money – throwing bucks in Megabucks Jackpot, or dicing yourself in China’s Rail System to Hell Casino?

Easy answer: play the jackpot. You may just be turning your hard earned money into toilet paper, but you can always live another day to quash your hopes on the lottery; you won’t feel the same riding the grim reaper’s funeral cars to purgatory.

“However, a subway accident that happened some days ago made Xiao Chen realize that the trains he rides every day may suddenly become life-claiming mechanical devices. He recalled that there was a signal failure along Guangzhou’s subway Line 2 on the morning of August 15, causing delays and even temporary shutdowns. At that time, Xiao Chen happened to be in the tube, and he felt a little bit scared. He said, “Our train stopped in the tunnel for four or five minutes, and I thought of the high-speed train tragedy on July 23, 2011. There was a minor panic for a while.”

Similar accidents happened very frequently to subway lines across the country. Escalator malfunctions, circuit breakdowns, trains moving in the wrong direction, and door failures are among the most common problems.

On the morning of July 5 in Beijing, a rising escalator suddenly changed direction at the Beijing Zoo Station on subway Line 4, leaving a 13-year-old boy dead and 30 injured.

On the evening of July 25 in Shenzhen, a train on metro Line 4 made an emergency brake stop when running between the Exhibition Center Station and the Civic Center Station. An investigation showed that one door of the metro train opened by 10 centimeters for about one second, during which, the train’s security switch immediately functioned by closing the door and making an emergency brake for the train. The train’s service was affected for about one minute.

On the evening of July 28 in Shanghai, a train on subway Line 10 ran in the opposite direction because of a mix-up in communication during the upgrade and debugging of the train control signal.

On August 8 in Shenzhen, a train on metro Line 4 stopped service for over an hour because of its failure to start again.”

And although I put this up on recent post, I’m going to repost this again. What’s a rider’s advice for riding on the trains? Sit in the frickin’ middle carriage!

“… Take the middle carriage whenever you are on a metro line or a high-speed train … if the vehicle is overloaded, please send a message describing your position so as to make it easy for your relatives and friends to locate you. Make sure your cell phone has power before you step on any vehicle and be sure to pray for yourself.”

EV’s A Shitty Chinese Product

Posted by w_thames_the_d on April 19, 2012


Electric vehicle batteries should have about 3000 charge/discharge cycles. Chinese EV batteries, according to the Chinese government, only have 500. Is anyone surprised?

Ecological Disaster in China

Posted by w_thames_the_d on April 19, 2012


China really wants to destroy herself, it must be a karmic self loathing for allowingg the party aparatchics to muzzle them like a rabid hound.
Aside from killing themselves via food poising, fake drugs and outright murder, they are killing mother nature, who like homey da clow, don’t play dat….
The three gorges dam is an example. It is said that at least 100,000 more people will be relocated due to problems created by the dam.
Can you imagine the devastion that will occur when the thing fails? After all, it was made in china, by Chinese people, so you do the math…
